Hi guys

 

i have a peculiar set of circumstances. roughly 3 days ago, one of my older 1.5TB drives dropped out of the array, and came back inconsistently after a restart. I then opted to rather take the drive out of the array, and replace it with a 3TB drive i had spare.

 

 

problem is - i suspect my parity is having issues, since after regenerating the 3TB drive, reiserfck reported alot of errors on it ( so much so that i had to run rebuild-tree).

 

My feeling is the data on the 1.5TB is more trustworthy ( or i would want to compare data with spot checks between the two to be sure).

 

My goal is to copy data from the old 1.5TB to the new 3TB , but i am not having luck in mounting it via unmenu or even SNAP ( i presumed this is because the drive was an UNRAID drive before..?)

 

can you please assist me in manually mounting the drive?

 

i will run a reisrfsck against it(/dev/sda1) just to be sure it is not partition issue causing the mount to fail

 

 

thx

*edit*

reiserfsck is reporting alot of errors. sighess - will have the checks complete first before proceding

 

*edit2*

confirmed - drive was beyond rescue - will try and preclear it at some stage

 

 

Parity will need to be rebuilt once the file system is corrected. Running the commend on the mdX device would have kept parity in sync. See my sig.
